Many ENTJs talk to themselves as a way to process their thoughts.
ENFP. Talkative and a bit self-absorbed, ENFPs aren't always the most polite personality type. ENFPs have a tendency to talk about themselves a lot and they're not great listeners.
ISTPs ranked lowest of all the 16 personality types in using social coping resources to deal with stress, according to the MBTI® Manual. They are also one of the four types in college reporting the lowest levels of assertiveness. All this may play a part in why they rank lower on self-acceptance.
ISFJ: Soft-spoken
You never speak an unkind word to others. You're responsible, studious, love to read, and others probably think you're a bit quirky, too.
Type D personality is associated with social anxiety in the general population.
ISFPs are quiet, reserved types who like to focus their attention on people and the experiences they enjoy. They aren't typically big talkers unless someone they're talking about something deeply important to them or they're trying to empathize verbally with someone.
ENTJs appear confident, business-like, and visionary in their speech. They tend to think out loud, and this is because extraverted thinking, their dominant process, needs to externalize thoughts, write them, or diagram them in some way in order to process them effectively.
INTJ: deep feelers
INTJs are often seen as cold-hearted, detached, and objective—but they only appear as such on the outside. That's because they're not reactive, meaning they don't show emotion in front of those they don't know well.

The ISFP – Being Their Own Worst Critic
ISFPs may seem easy-going at first glance, but these types actually hold themselves to very specific standards.
Additionally, immature ISFPs may become highly sensitive to criticism and take everything personally. Instead of balancing their feeling and thinking sides, these ISFPs tend to believe that whatever they feel is the ultimate truth.
INTP. INTPs are also among the most unique and rare Myers-Briggs types, accounting for around 3.3 percent of people in the U.S., according to Ball State. They have the ability to be intuitive thinkers, but the fact that they can go with the flow, adapt, and be flexible is what makes them stand out.
"While the INTJ personality type is known for being highly intelligent, they also score high on trustworthiness, probably because they are self-aware enough to recognize the importance of trust in human relationships," Parmar explains.
People with the ISFJ personality type consider it their duty to protect and care for those they love. They have a heart for the struggling people of the world and will often do whatever it takes to provide a safe, stable environment for people who need them.
One of the most positive Myers-Briggs types is the ENFJ, or those who are extroverted, intuitive, feeling, and judging. "Known for their optimism and upbeat personality, ENFJs are known for being fun to be around and for being idealist organizers who want to create a better way," Owens says.
People with the ISTJ personality type are quiet, cautious leaders who are dependable and systematic. They tend to work within clearly defined systems and processes and lead others by delivering clear, consistent direction through logically and efficiently outlined plans.
"ESFJs are social creatures with a lot of love for routine. They tend to be sensitive and feel most awkward when they think they are the butt of someone's joke or are not having their feelings in a friendship or relationship reciprocated," says Owens.
Emotionally detached: ISTPs are not well attuned to the emotional states of others, and they can sometimes be seen as cold, unfeeling, or insensitive. They also distance themselves from their own emotions, ignoring their feelings until they become overwhelming.
According to the MBTI® Manual ENTJs are the type least likely to suppress anger and least likely to show anger.
In my experience as an MBTI® practitioner, one of the most common struggles I hear from INFJs is the struggle of being misunderstood. INFJs feel misunderstood in their external environment and even by themselves.

Being an INFJ comes with its advantages, but also its drawbacks. Lovable INFJs experience the same pain, struggles, and sadness that others do—they often just do so in private. This may contribute to depression.
ISTPs are the most unpredictable of the 16 personality types, because they're typically rational and logical, but can also be enthusiastic and spontaneous.
ESTJs are the least emotional personality type. This is because they are incredibly practical, level-headed individuals who focus on facts and figures rather than feelings. They are grounded in reality and rarely let emotions take over or cloud their judgment.
